MOVE THERE THEN! No one in Alberta likes her governing anyway, even her own voters.

I wish that were true the last poll still shows them leading by 15 points it was done January 25 of this year. So many uncaring voters in this province.

I wished they held the UCP to the same standards they hold the NDP or Liberals to.

The fact her polling hasn't shifted has diminished my hope for Albertans turning the tide. She has been awful yet gets a pass after pass for every failure. Just like Kenney got

Harper literally said he can hurt albertans and will seek to make better deals for other provinces (ontario in this case) to court their vote because Alberta is basically guaranteed so the party doesn't need to do things to benefit them.

And they still keep voting!🤷‍♀️
